The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama sits in the heart of Cardiff city centre and is surrounded by white Portland-stone 19th century civic buildings on one side and the grounds of the magnificent Cardiff Castle on the other. The college comprises of two buildings combining history and a contemporary style in one location.
Situated at the end of an impressive tree-lined avenue, guests will arrive from within Bute Park with the castle in view. This entrance can be used for traditional wedding cars, horses, carts, walking or even a tandem. The park is located on the river which runs down Cardiff Bay, so it’s even possible to have a water taxi transport the bride and groom.
Celebrate in style
The impressive Anthony Hopkins Centre was originally the Cardiff Castle Stables with a historic open-air courtyard. Featuring two elegant rooms, both licensed for ceremonies, one can seat 85 guests, and the other can accommodate 60.
Other venues include the world-class Concert Hall (250) and Richard Burton Theatre (130), which are ideal for ceremonies with a dramatic difference. In addition, the stunning contemporary glass-walled entrance hall and open-air terrace that overlook the Grade I listed Bute Park are stunning. Together these spaces provide an impressive setting to say ‘I do’.
More intimate receptions are held in the Stables with up to 50 friends and family.
Alternatively, the glass-wall Atrium can accommodate 300 loved ones. It boasts a fully-stocked and licensed bar as well as a dancing area for live bands or a DJ, a cloakroom and a bridge decorated with fairylights creating a wonderful entrance for the first dance.
